<p>I think I'm unique in my interest in both science and culture and languages and women's rights and recycling? Or maybe not...I don't want to seem random like my electives in high school. It ranged from computer programming to debate to drama to photography. My counselor said it was normal though.</p>

<p>I'm so scared and nervous and excited about the whole college application process. Any advice would be lovely. Please be brutally honest. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I wonder if other kids from my school lurks here too...and if they can figure out who this is...</p>

<p>Why do you plan on taking SATII Bio? Just wondering, because Rice asks for either the ACT+writing, or SAT + 2 subject tests. If you’re just going above and beyond to show your Bio skills, that’s cool, but I just wanted to make sure you knew the app requirements…</p>

<p>Well I just thought if I did well I could sent it in as well, plus studying ahead would help me when it came for the IB HL Bio Test.</p>
